If that is the case (and after reading [2/2], of course, readers of
the series can tell that it was the reason), it would be good to be
honest and document _that_ as the reason why you are using callbacks
for all of them in the proposed log message for [1/2].

And I think that is a reasonable way to use callback to do "more
than just setting a bit".  Even in that case, I am not sure if it is
a good idea to share the same callback that has conditional code
that only is relevant to the "patience" case, though.

THanks.
